2021 30DS weak furnace flow solved

Sometimes you see stuff that just makes you shake your head and wonder what somebody was thinking. Absolutely amazing...I'll make this it's own thread also and hopefully word will make it to the factory floor to not do this anymore.

Finally solved the mystery of the weak airflow to the bedroom through the furnace vents. The duct work had been stuffed inside the wall and was all crumpled up blocking the vent. I started pulling it out...and pulling and pulling and pulling. Absolutely ridiculous...this would take about 15 seconds to trim to the proper length. Now that it's there I'm considering just leaving it so it will blow out into the bedroom now instead of being trapped back in that little corner.

Hopefully this helps others that run into this issue.

All makes and models seem to suffer from the extend ductwork problem, I deducted my entire rig to solve the problem. Good you found it.
